With dynamic profiling and application-aware technologies to minimize false positives, Barracuda CloudGen WAF protects against today's advanced, persistent and zero-day threats. Trusted by the world's most security-conscious businesses, including financial institutions, government agencies and trading platforms, the Barracuda CloudGen WAF inspects all bi-directional web traffic, and guards against data loss by inspecting the HTTP responses from the back-end servers. Support for CloudFormation templates enables admins and devops engineers to automatically bootstrap and cluster additional instances as needed, for higher throughput and easy deployment.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
- By default the Barracuda Web Application Firewall web interface listens on HTTP/8000 and HTTPS/8443 ports so make sure these ports are added in the Inbound Rule of the security group which is associated with the Barracuda Web Application Firewall VM.
- Allow a few minutes before taking any further actions in the EC2 Portal after deploying the Barracuda Web Application Firewall. During this time the Barracuda Web Application Firewall is getting provisioned and licensed.
- Access the Barracuda Web Application Firewall using the associated Public IP/Public DNS with port 8000 over HTTP i.e. http://<public IP>:8000.
- You will see the blue loading screen for some time and eventually you will be presented with the End User License Agreement (EULA).
- Click Accept button and you will be redirected to the login page.
- Log in as "admin" to begin configurations. Your initial password is the EC2 instance ID and can be changed later from Basic > Administration page.
